Ultralight Fishing Tackle For Pond Fishing

 

The next time that you go to the pond for a fishing expedition, make sure that you don’t forget your ultralight gear. When it comes to pond fishing, nothing beats it. The smaller line diameter, and lure sizes pose less of a threat to the fish, making them more eager to bite! These smaller fish are almost what I consider “dumb” and will bite just about anything. Larger fish have learned, normally from people using larger baits.
There are also some decent sized fish in these ponds. One of my biggest fish, a 7lb 14oz monster caught in the spring, was out of a residential retention pond. I caught her while spawning on ultralight fishing gear, using a 6″ plastic worm. Twitching it across her bed, she finally took it to move it away, and I set the hook. Not the biggest fish that I have ever caught, but the biggest one on this small of gear, that is for sure!
You don’t necessarily catch the biggest fish in the pond using ultralight fishing gear, but you do catch a lot of them. Pretty much, you are guaranteed a great time on the water. As long as you are going after more fish, and not worried about the size of the fish, you will have fun. Isn’t it about being out on the water anyways?
Not to mention, is the cost of ultralight fishing. You can get a tackle box, some lures, and a rod and reel combo for less than $50 total. That is the cost of one of my full sized rods! There are a lot more effective ways to catch more fish, than spending $500 on what the professionals say you need. Remember, they get paid to say that!

    I totally agree with your comment about it’s all about being out on the water.
    When I was in my teens I spent hundreds of dollars on fishing gear and fished several hours per week. But after going into the military, and also during college, I found that it was much more convenient and fun to get some ultralight gear, a couple lures or some live bait, a few snacks/drinks, and a friend to go hit up virtually any location that had some fish to do a little ultralight bank fishing. It’s really all about getting out of the house, out in nature, having a great time catching some fish. To me it isn’t about the biggest fish, or even the most fish- it’s all about getting out in nature having a great time!

    Keep up the great work!
